“Sydney was an excellent pet sitter. She was very professional, organized and communicative throughout the 5 days she watched and walked my dog and cat. Sydney sent me information and pictures for each dog walk, keeping me up to date on my dog's sore paw and really gave me peace of mind knowing that a very caring responsible person was coming over twice a day to attend to my pets needs. I have been very impressed with Sydney and recommend her highly.”
About: I've had dogs almost my entire childhood from small pomeranians to rottweilers. I currently don't own any since my apartment would feel small with a dog but I would love yo dogsit for anyone who doesn't want their dog or cat to be alone. My wife is home all day so your dogs would get the exercise they need and all the love and attention they would want as she too grew up around dogs if any size. Same day appointments are available as are same day cancellations. Feel free to email me if you have questions. References available. I currently work full time but do have days off for therapy sessions for a past injury. My wife would be caring for pets if I am not available in my stead and she is great with animals. She also has references if needed. We can persist any day of the week with an advanced notice for weekends and holidays. I live in an apartment but there is a park nearby if your dog needs exercise. I also have a patio in case they just want to sit/lay in the shade/sun. Everything that could be dangerous towards dogs would be put away
About: I've grown up with 2 puppers and a few cats with most recently 12 years with my cat and dog. I am looking to give your pets some good outdoor time or just drop in and make sure they're fed and watered if need be! I can give medications if needed as well and have a background in pharmacy. I work per diem with an irregular schedule. I usually have availability on weekdays and/or afternoons. Due to my schedule I do need at least 24 hour notice before any drop ins or walks! I am just finishing up an educational training job going onto a per diem position that will have plenty of weekdays open for drop ins, walks or other play activities. I will not have a space to pet sit in my home however I will be able to travel to care for your pets at your home or wherever and set it up for your pet's preference.
About: I had an internship with a veterinarian clinic where I learned so much about the necessary care for pets. I've even done harder tasks such as take their temperature, listen to their heartbeats, and much more. I dog sit at home for colleagues and family whenever I can because they always come to me for help. I work from home so I'm pretty available all day to keep a pet company. I can come over to the client's house to walk the dogs, feed them, or even stay the night if need be. I am very active, playful, and love to cuddle with pets. I enjoy taking dogs on walks/runs or being a couch potato with them as we watch movies.
About: I’ve been pet sitting dogs and cats for the past 10 years and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Having dogs and cats of my own has given me a strong understanding of how important it is for pets to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets keep their usual routine so they feel at home. I am currently working part time and will be sure to provide my availability, so that together we can be sure your pet is given the best possible care. I will ensure your pet is well cared for while you're away, providing them with plenty of attention and care. They are family afterall.
“I’m using crutches at the moment and needed someone to walk my dog. This was my first time using Rover; it’s been a great experience. Cat replied to my request quickly and on short notice, which I appreciated. My rescue dog, a terrier mix, is not around other people very often, but he took to Cat immediately and returned happy each of the three days that she walked him. It’s all gone so well that I have another week of walks scheduled with Cat.”
“Jennifer walks my Dad’s dog several days a week. I was able to set up recurring walks with her on somewhat short notice and it is working out great. Jennifer is easy to communicate with and responds quickly when I contact her.”
About: I love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have a dachshund of my own, so I understand how much pets mean to their families and how important it is to know they’re in good hands. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away. I’m responsible, attentive, and dependable, and I’ll treat your pets like my own while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have taken care care of family and friends dogs and cats when they go out of town. I currently take care of our family’s bernadoodle part time when she’s not with her mom and we love to take her on long walks and a run around the yard. When she is not with me I miss her and would love to give your pups or cats some love too. I am currently working part time 2 days a week so I can fit care for your pets on the other days of the week. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for your dog to run around.

“Laura was wonderful! She arrived on time and sent me photos of my doggo during their walk after which Wynrie was happy and tired. Would not hesitate to use again!”
About: Before requesting to book anything with me, please be aware that I’m a stay at home mom, so my son does accompany me on walks and is present in my home for boarding. Because of this, pets in my care do need to be comfortable around young children. Your pet’s safety and comfort is very important to me and I want to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone involved. I will never force an interaction between your pet and my child, and I carefully manage their environment to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable during visits. I have over a decade of hands on animal care experience, including working in veterinary hospitals, an emergency animal hospital, animal shelters, and even a wildlife sanctuary specializing in wolves and other wild canines. I’m extremely comfortable handling dogs and cats of all personalities. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, elderly, or simply needs some extra patience and attention, I bring professional animal experience and a genuine love for what I do. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I am a stay at home mom and other than some other gigs and taking care of my rambunctious 10 month old son, I am fairly free! I have 2 cats at home and they have the most spoiled lives ever! I live in a 2 story smaller home that’s perfect sized for me and my little family. I have a fenced backyard and am walking distance to several parks.
About: I have had animals my entire life growing up and have always loved them. I know how to take care of pretty much every domesticated animal there is! I currently work full-time. But I am able to leave at lunchtime to go spend some time with the animals and I don't start till 9 so I have plenty of time to get a morning walk in. I live on 5 and an half acres and currently have three friendly doodles. Who would be happy to hang out with a friend for the weekend.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sparks
Eric did a great job caring for our dog, Dexter. He was very communicative, responsive, and provided daily updates that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Dexter was well cared for, and I appreciated knowing how things were going each day. We would happily book with Eric again in the future and would recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and dependable dog walker.
I cannot say enough good things about Andee! She began working with us during the chaotic process of moving both my parents into a senior living facility. She initially started walking my parents’ dog, Angus, every day, and has been open and flexible as her school and my parents’ schedule changed. Andee is extremely reliable and takes excellent care of Angus. Angus is always excited to see Andee when she's at the door! Andee also has excellent communication skills and is very easy to work with. I highly recommend Andee for all your dog walking needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Sparks is $21 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $30 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Sparks. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Sparks after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sparks. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
